LogicManager Announces Complimentary Webinar on Risk Assessment Best Practices

Sept. 12, 2012 - PRLog -- Boston, MA, September 12, 2012 – LogicManager, the market leader in Enterprise Risk Management solutions, announced today a complimentary webinar titled “5 Steps for Better Risk Assessments” presented by LogicManager CEO, Steven Minsky, will be conducted on Wednesday, September 19, 2012 at 1:00pm EDT. Mr. Minsky is a recognized speaker and a certified instructor on the subject of ERM.

About the webinar:
Risk managers are charged with ensuring transparency, alignment, and forward looking views throughout the organization.  The way this is achieved is through risk assessments.  

A successful enterprise risk assessment process can be a powerful tool for board and management level strategic decision making by connecting business activities to goals and identifying the risks that threaten to derail these strategic objectives.  An unsuccessful risk assessment is little more than a form over substance activity that lacks context and actionable results.  

The key is being able to compare operational risk assessment information across functions and levels while keeping one comprehensive risk picture.

In this webinar each of the following top 5 best practices will be reviewed with step-by-step tutorial with risk assessment examples on how to achieve them from where most organizations are currently:

-Taking a root-cause approach
-Standardizing assessment scale and criteria with risk assessment templates
-Linking risks to controls
-Connecting risks to strategic goals
-Embedding risk assessments in everyday activities

The webinar is scheduled for Wednesday, September 19, 2012 at 1:00pm EDT.  To register for this event, please visit: http://info.logicmanager.com/register-to-watch-5-steps-fo....

Who will benefit:
Risk Professionals:
Many risk professionals have recently been given an enterprise risk management role, which is now just one of many of their responsibilities. Often these new responsibilities do not come with new resources. As expectations for actionable results from risk assessment activities steadily increase from both inside and outside or organization, risk managers will learn how to adopt best practices so that risk assessments can be compared and utilized cross-functionally for more accurate and actionable risk management.

Compliance Professionals:
As the number of regulations increase and change, so do the risk assessments required as part of the compliance process. All risks to compliance are not equal in terms of impact, likelihood and effectiveness of current control activities. Attendees will learn how to objectively and systematically prioritize which regulations need attention from compliance risk assessments.
